annotate pdf files - best options for use with F17?

2012-11-29 Thread Ranjan Maitra
Hi, I am required to annotate a pdf file for proof-reading and I was wondering what users would recommend for easy use with Fedora 17. I looked online some and came up with xournal, PDFescape, Crocodoc: the last two are some online resource. I tried xournal but was not impressed. Any suggestions?
